Very clever wordage here. This is sensual and wry in its humor.
Love the “lisp broken words”—-

Thank you J. I obviously wasn’t wearing my spectacles last night – it’s meant to be ‘dot.com’ not ‘dit.com’. mixing my vowels!

You’ve taken painting by numbers to a most sensual high. I don’t know that any man has ever succumbed to “negligee geography”, but hey, there’s a first time for everything. And what a way to go!

Thank you Crim. The words are over 2 decades old and they are as distant as my feelings for her. It’s important to not get shackled to the past, otherwise they define and cause misery. I moving to foreign lands, so my stay on this site will be brief.

The boat theme in this is eerily good.

Thank you. There is something enchanting, and yet, eerie of the ocean. It’s bigger & greater than human kind.

The first line immediately sucked me in.
You do not waste any words with your poetry and you let us see what we see. I really like that in poetry.
You are an amazing wordsmith.

Thank you. Even as a kid, on a rough council estate, always found scribbling to be cathartic.

“The rigor mortis of planes on runways.”
Quite creative imagery there and throughout.
The first stanza could even stand as a poem by itself.
“Ventriloquist placed your words in my mouth”
I have none of my own any more as I am so taken by you.
Love the concepts developed here.
Excellent work.
